The neo-con crowd acquired a a lot overdue mega punch (or ought to I say, MAGA) within the intestine on Tuesday with the electoral bludgeoning of Dick Cheney’s evil spawn, Liz. It’s for moments like this that the phrase “chortle” was created. Chortle away.
I even have an oblique tie to the Cheney’s by way of my outdated (and deceased) buddy, Bruce Bradley. Please don’t hate Bruce. If it was not for Bruce, we’d not ever needed to endure the madness of Dick Cheney and Liz Cheney.
(In Bruce’s protection, he was appalled by what Cheney did throughout his time as Bush’s Vice President.)
The story begins in 1964 when Bruce grew to become Chief of Employees to a Congressman from Kansas, Robert Ellsworth. Ellsworth went on to turn into the U.S. Everlasting Consultant to NATO. Anyway again to Bruce. Whereas working for Ellsworth, Bruce befriended a younger Congressman from Illinois. A man named, Donald Rumsfeld. Yep, that Rumsfeld. Bruce and Don grew to become pals over ferocious video games of squash and racket ball. Bruce had a membership foot however might nonetheless beat Rummy. This was throughout 1964-1968.
Leap forward a couple of years. Bruce arrange a consulting agency–Bradley Woods. Sooner or later in 1973, Rummy calls Bruce and says, “Hey Bruce, I’ve acquired an ideal younger man who wants a job. His title is Dick Cheney.” That’s all Bruce wanted to listen to. He gave Cheney a job.
1973 – Rumsfeld asks Cheney to hitch him in Brussels, Belgium, when Nixon appoints Rumsfeld ambassador to NATO. Cheney declines and as a substitute accepts a publish as vp at Bradley, Woods and Firm, a Washington, DC, funding agency that counsels company purchasers on politics and federal coverage.
In line with Bruce (we had great chats whereas taking part in golf), Cheney was a heavy smoker (you can smoke within the workplace again within the 70s) and partial to three martini lunches. He did little actual work. The job was a spot holder for an entitled favourite son. Cheney left Bruce two years later to turn into Gerald Ford’s Chief of Employees after which marketing campaign supervisor. When Ford misplaced to Jimmy Carter in 1976 he returned to Bradley Woods. It was a spot to hold his hat and put his toes on the desk whereas puffing away to prep for his run for Congress in Wyoming, which he gained. Subsequent cease, Congress.
the remainder of the story. Dick Cheney grew to become the dwelling embodiment of Darth Vader through the George W. Bush administration. The truth is, Cheney and Rumsfeld conspired collectively to bypass the need of President Bush. I’ve heard one story from a participant at a White Home State of affairs Room assembly that passed off in 2003. President Bush decided to take motion towards Afghani drug traffickers and Rummy and Cheney ignored him and took a special tack. My buddy, who was current on the assembly, was shocked.
In order that brings us to Cheney’s evil spawn, Liz. She has the identical totalitarian tendencies of her dad and has confirmed herself more proficient at profiting off of her political connections. How else to elucidate her rise in web property from $7 million to $40 million whereas a member of the Home of Representatives? I’ve heard of individuals being frugal and counting pennies, however that is off the dimensions.
